Requires U.S. foreign assistance commodities to be delivered before they expire.

The Saving Lives and Taxpayer Dollars Act mandates that U.S. foreign assistance commodities, including food, medicine, family planning products, and vaccines, be made available to intended beneficiaries before they expire. It prohibits the destruction of these commodities unless every effort has been made to donate or sell them. The bill requires the Secretary of State, in coordination with the U.S. Agency for International Development and the Secretary of Agriculture, to report annually on any expired, spoiled, or destroyed commodities.
